Chapter 27 Magic Trick? That's some serious strength!
The sudden appearance of a large box in a confined space creates a striking visual impact.
Even a veteran underground party member like Lao Zhang was genuinely startled.
Suspicious eyes scanned back and forth, wondering how a meter-long box could suddenly appear as if by magic.
He worked underground for over a decade and had a deep understanding of magic tricks.
Even knowing that a magic trick is a form of deception.
It's not that they can actually conjure items out of thin air, but rather that they prepare in advance and then take them out at an extremely fast speed when the other person is not paying attention.
Many magic trick props look ordinary, but they actually have hidden layers.
If it were anywhere else, Lao Zhang would definitely believe it was a magic trick.
There must be mechanisms or hidden compartments in the walls or underground.
However, this safe house was set up by him three years ago when he came to Shanghai, so that he would have a place to hide in case of an emergency.
He knows every single place here better than anyone.
There were no hidden compartments in the walls or any hidden layers in the floor, making it impossible to conceal the box beforehand.
Moreover, throughout the entire process, Lin Wan's hands were empty, and she did not make any concealed movements.
The box just appeared out of nowhere.
Even if it's folded, you still need to find a place to hide it first, right?
He had learned magic tricks for work, but he could not do them to such a magical degree.
Let alone a young girl in her early twenties?
However, being a veteran underground party member, he had long since developed a tenacious will.
After a brief moment of surprise, he recovered in just three seconds.
His expression was calm, showing no emotion whatsoever.
This is the composure of a veteran underground party member!
Since we can't figure out how the magic trick was performed, let's just keep watching.
Even if you can conjure up a large box using methods you can't yet think of, actually taking out the medicine won't be so easy.
"Phew!"
Lin Wan took a deep breath and a happy smile appeared on her face.
Deep down, she felt quite uneasy.
After all, it's the first time using the Time-Space Treasure Chest, and we haven't tested whether we can summon it in this dimension yet.
If we can't summon it, all those life-saving medicines will be wasted!
The more important the items in the box, the more anxious one becomes, worrying about potential accidents.
Only now that the treasure chest has been successfully summoned did my heart finally settle down.
Lin Wan did not reach out to touch the treasure chest, but silently recited the instructions to open it in her mind.
In an instant, the seemingly heavy box lid popped open automatically.
However, looking around, there were no items visible inside the box.
Only colorful mist flowed inside the box.
The Time-Space Treasure Chest currently appears to be only one meter long and half a meter wide.
In reality, it has a space inside that can accommodate ten cubic meters.
With a thought, the mist flowing inside the box seemed to be drawn out, drifting out and enveloping the open space beside it.
Three seconds later, the colorful mist disappeared, revealing several square cardboard boxes and several plastic storage boxes.
Through the transparent walls of the box, you can see that it is full of pills.
On top of the largest cardboard box, there was a cartoon doll with a camera hanging from its waist.
These are the prizes I redeemed from the claw machine before.
Lin Wan originally hung the doll on her belt, but it was swinging around and affecting her work while she was tidying up, so she took it off and casually placed it on the cardboard box.
Unexpectedly, they were all put into a time-travel treasure chest and brought back to the Republic of China era.
Lin Wan hurriedly took the doll in her hands and examined it carefully, a gentle smile appearing on her pretty face.
He hung the doll on his waist and opened one of the cardboard boxes.
He gestured, saying, "One box contains four vials of penicillin powder for injection. There are five hundred boxes here, totaling two thousand vials."
Gurgle~.
Old Zhang swallowed hard, his mind a complete blank, like mush!
Facts speak louder than words; what could be more convincing than something laid out before you?
If the time-space treasure chest is a magic trick, it's something that's folded up in advance and hidden on your person.
So, you can't possibly fold up and hide the several large cardboard boxes and the plastic storage box full of pills in front of you beforehand, can you?
Therefore, what Lin Wan said was not science fiction, but reality!
So, the 40 units of penicillin in front of us are real!
The box contained penicillin, a drug known as a life-saving miracle, which gave it an unreal, sudden sense of wealth.
In the past, after going to great lengths and risking being captured by spies, obtaining even one vial of medicine was considered a rare and enormous gain.
But right now, this enormous harvest consists of a full two thousand branches.
And the therapeutic effect is even better!
Even when he sleeps at night, he doesn't dare to have such extravagant dreams!
Old Zhang's eyes widened, and his mouth was so open it could fit two eggs!
I was so shocked by the huge surprise that I couldn't recover for a long time.
"Old Zhang, Comrade Old Zhang..."
Lin Wan called out softly twice, but the other person stood there blankly without responding.
He raised his voice again: "Ahem! Comrade Lao Zhang!"
"Uh...?" Old Zhang's neck stiffened, and he turned his head in response to the sound with a blank stare.
I blinked and finally snapped out of my shock.
He was still utterly shocked, unable to express the awe he felt.
He murmured unconsciously, "Really? It's all true!"
It's like a question, or perhaps a self-affirmation.
A huge pie fell from the sky, leaving even this old-timer feeling dizzy.
Lin Wan's gaze swept over the supplies, then she walked over and squatted down on the ground.
When I got up, I had a bright red apple in my hand.
"This is... fruit that Long Aotian prepared for us. Why don't you try it and see if it's real or not?"
When preparing to mention Chen Huai'an's name, he thought for a moment and decided to use the pseudonym he had used when they first met.
It wasn't that I didn't trust Lao Zhang, but rather it was out of the habitual caution of an intelligence agent.
The fewer people who know, the safer Chen Huai'an will be.
Even if Long Aotian's name is leaked in the future, it will only be a code name, a pseudonym.
Although the enemy cannot travel through 76 years to hunt down Chen Huai'an, it is always better to be cautious.
She will only reveal her real name when she faces the highest levels of government in the future.
"Wow, what a huge apple!" Old Zhang's eyes widened in astonishment at the enormous size of the apple.
During the Republic of China era, the main apple variety cultivated was the Guoguang apple, which was introduced from the Americas. The flesh was firm, with a moderate sweet and sour taste, but the flavor was rather monotonous.
In some areas, local soft apples are sporadically grown; they have a soft texture but the fruit is very small.
It is vastly different from the apples of today that have undergone countless improvements, resulting in large, crisp, sweet, and brightly colored fruit.
Although the old products tasted purer and healthier, in terms of taste and appearance, the advanced products cultivated by scientists are superior.
If this apple were placed on the market, its large size and vibrant color would immediately make it a symbol of status, and only the upper echelons of the Nationalist government would be qualified to enjoy it.
Lin Wan grasped the bright red apple with both hands and snapped it open with force.
Snapped!
The apple made a crisp sound as it was snapped in two by hand!
If Chen Huai'an were there, he would definitely exclaim, "Eating meat really does make you stronger! This girl's grip is stronger than many men's!"
